Electric God 03:41
The seeing eye looking in always knows where you've been and wears you like a second skin Everything you do or say falls upon the vast array and never, never fades away But there will come a time where only silence will remain Back in time and back again looking for a secret sin you can't deny the electric god To serve and protect, you must obey time to serve, time to pray but never, never chance to stray But there will come a time where only silence will remain Pray to your Electric God Pray to your ELECTRIC! Pray to your Electric God Pray to your ELECTRIC Anointed or appointed for a place of trust amongst the rust the sea of dead technology You have the right to speak your mind to follow your own intelligent design So shall it be to the end of time But there will come a time where only silence will remain Pray to your Electric God Pray to your ELECTRIC! Pray to your Electric God Pray to your ELECTRIC GOD!

Eternal 04:05
Our ships cast upon the water Heading across the sea A different land, a new belief Is written on the hand Eternal, we gotta get away Eternal, nothing more to say Eternal, the sun is turning grey As we land upon the soil Taking what is rightfully ours Leaving nothing left to spoil the kind of love that truly sours Eternal, we gotta get away Eternal, nothing more to say Eternal, the sun is turning grey Left behind within our wake broken souls and burning homes two glass eyes upon the snake written in blood our lying tomes

We Fall Down 04:05
We fall down waiting for a light to shine We fall down the making of our own design We fall down look upon the face of night as we fall down a shadow without light and every dream is closer to the edge with no way to wake up until you're on the ledge We fall down waiting for a light to shine We fall down the making of our own design We fall down look upon the face of night as we fall down a shadow without light and every step is next to the abyss waiting to stumble into the final kiss We fall down waiting for a light to shine We fall down the making of our own design We fall down look upon the face of night as we fall down a shadow without light We fall down falling down falling down falling...

Barren Lands 05:10
Lookin' at the piles of stone nothing but rubbles and sand the beauty of our home destroyed by human hand no color anywhere to see everything is turning to dust no plants, no life, no tree all steel turned to rust and if it seems unfair i really think you must take a look around it's just you and I living in a barren land you and I, living in a barren land from sea to sky, living in a barren land because of you and i, living in a barren land what have we left behind a crippled legacy a future deaf and blind perpetual war and beggary our children living in fear our elderly lost and forgotten no seas upon the sphere all flesh is rotten and if it seems unfair i really think you must take a look around it's just you and I living in a barren land you and I, living in a barren land from sea to sky, living in a barren land because of you and i, living in a barren land now we stand together now we stand alone dying birds of a feather only skin and bone noone else to blame it wasn't good enough to try now we wear our shame it's only you and I

Come Down 03:01
I’m not one of your lost sheep Who follows blindly whilst I sleep My eyes are open and I’m feeling okay Despite anything that you have to say You’re condescending every time you speak Fortune casts are always bleak Hope is the shackle tied to your crown Your Fear shines through your frown So come down It is important to always ask why The wrong perception is the will to defy Imprisoned mind that won’t let go Holding on to what you don’t know The righteous path is just a façade You make a mockery of your god As you’re spilling blood you proselytize A second coming that will never rise So come down Call to prayer, a will to die Every kill you justify Right is wrong when you don’t try To discern a prayer from a lie So come down Come down
6.
Solar Summer 03:40
I remember back in '83 A hollow Earth, only you and me And I, yes I remember Sulfur rain and liquid skies Endless stars written on our eyes Yes I, I remember summer Solar winds and gamma rays supernovas and a cosmic gaze Yes I, I remember summer To the pulsar keeping time a trail of colors so sublime And I, yes I remember
7.
Time, oh time, my bastard friend So bittersweet, until the end show me, the universe at hand yet so high, your final demand When the last grain of sand falls down and the stars fade from the sky, I will wear a robe of earth and stone If perchance to say goodbye Time, oh time, you are no friend one purpose to fulfill all asunder you shall rend until everything is still When the last grain of sand falls down and the stars fade from the sky, I will wear a robe of earth and stone If perchance to say goodbye Time, oh time, my coldest friend Just as sure, as the setting sun everything, I know, and love, will end and all will come undone When the last grain of sand falls down and the stars fade from the sky, I will wear a robe of earth and stone If perchance to say goodbye

about

"The whole album captures a certain time frame of the Hard Rock, Stoner Rock and Heavy Rock scene starting from the 1970’s Doom Metal scene right upto the mid 2000’s killer Stoner Rock scene. You have all the meaty Classic Rock hooks that even swings into areas of Blues Rock and Psych Rock. Ironleaf captures that vivid creative energy within the first three tracks of the album alone with Electric God, Eternal and We Fall Down being quite catchy and instantly melodic whilst showcasing areas of downright aggression." - Outlaws of the Sun


"... the riffs are super sweet, and the vocals ... well, the vocals are so good that you'll forget all about the amazing riffs underneath them!!" - Tom's Reviews
